OK, so the thread I started for the cosplay gatherings at Yaoi-con aren't doing as well so far, so I figured I might as well start a cosplay-gathering list for Nekocon 2004, which is the weekend right after Halloween weekend & Yaoi-con.

This thread will be to let you decide on a gathering, and inform people about what day/time/place to meet up if they want to be a part in the gathering. How it works is simple: If you'd like to have a gathering on a specific day/time, please reply here with the anime/video-game/j-rock group you'd like to form, the day (Friday-Sunday), and time (10am-7 or 8pm) you'd like to have it. I shall update this first post as often as I can to post changes or additions that cosplayers have until the week of Nekocon.

NOTE: I can update the list for everyone as needed, but come the convention please remember I'm not the one in charge of gathering the cosplayers together. If you are the ones interested in forming the gathering, come the convention it'll be your responsibility to gather up your respective cosplayers for the photoshoot. Example: Inu Yasha, outside of the convention center, Saturday, 1pm. Please have someone in charge to be at the designated meeting area, so they can gather other IY members there to add to their numbers.) If I'm there, I'll ask to gather everyone up eventually (when they're all assembled) for a big photoshoot, but please, if you're going to request a gathering time, make sure you follow through and organize it by the time Nekocon is here.

With that in mind, please let me know which anime/video-game/j-rock/misc- group you'd like to form, and include the day, time, and location (like a lot of you, this will be the first time that Nekocon is somewhere DIFFERENT, so I'm new to the location of the Chesapeake Bay Holiday Inn & convention center) so please provide a good description of where to meet:

Good luck in gathering your cosplayers & finishing costumes, and I'll see you all there in a few months!! -EBK

I'd like to form a Pretear group, an Inu Yasha group, and/or a Magic Knight Rayearth group. One or more of those three. Is anyone else interested?

Mystic B: I'll be happy to update the listing with the times & locations for the gatherings you wish to have, but please make a separate thread for each (or all) of those in the Nekocon thread. Dizzylizzy started a new one for her Lunar gathering, and she's waiting for her friends and other cosplayers to reply:

http://forums.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=42371

So if you want to form a gathering, make a new thread e.g. "Inu Yasha gathering?" or "Pretear cosplay group?" etc. and talk it over with the others who reply there, and when you finalize a gathering day, time, and place, reply here in this thread, and I'll add the info to this list. Thanks! :)

Well I'd like to start a Shonen Jump Photo shoot(yugi-gi-oh,dbz,one piece,naruto..whatever has been in the shonen jump manga!

Eurobeat King

08-14-2004, 03:39 AM

bigwil: Like I mentioned in the previous post, if you'd like to form a gathering, please start a NEW thread on the forums, asking if anyone would like to join in on your Shonen Jump gathering. If you do decide to have one, then reply here saying "EBK, please add a Naruto gathering to the list for Saturday, at 1pm outside the convention center" and I'll update the list on the 1st post so that others can see. If you try to gather cosplayers here, it would confuse a lot of people who are just trying to get info about ALL the gatherings (rather than just one in particular) and also the thread could get spammed. So start a new thread, and then reply here when you finalize a day/time/location for your anime/j-rock/video-game gathering. Thanks!

Gaiaonline (Go-Gaia) Gathering on Saturday at 10am, we'll be meeting in the lobby of the Holiday Inn. We might do the shoot outside, weather pending. There will be a sign to make sure everyone knows where and who are the Gaian's Photo Shot is. Hope Star on Gaiaonline is in charge of the gathering.

Katiluna: Added the Gaiaonline gathering to the list.

EVERYONE: While I'm away at Animagic this weekend, if you have figured out a day/time/place for a gathering, please post the information here, and I'll update the list when I return. Gatherings like GGX, FF (any), Pretear, J-rock, etc. may have their own threads, but this is the thread where people can see the entire list of gatherings, so once you figure out the times you'd like to have your gathering(s), let me know. See you all in a little more than a month! :skidude2:

I am in charge of it. I hope all can show. You don't have to be in costume as long as your on Gaia. There will be a surprise to all that come. Thats why I need to know how many people are planning on being there to make sure that we have enough for everyone. :heart:

~Hope Star

p.s. you can email me at lady_hope_star@yahoo.com or pm me on AIM at ladyhopestar or pm my sister, who is also in charge, at gaia_key@yahoo.com pm her at SmallzDDM03 on AIM

visualstimulation: I've added FF7 to the list, and I'm assuming you meant SATURDAY at 10am to have the gathering, since you didn't mention the day.

NOTE: I've added the cosplay.com big-group photoshoot at 1:00pm on Saturday, and hopefully this won't be too late for those who plan to be getting ready for the masquerade in the evening. Since I haven't seen the convention center yet, for the location I'm just going to put OUTSIDE for now and there should be enough space for a large gathering. When I get there on Thursday (November 4th) I'll scope out the place and find a good spot for it, so come find me and ask me on Friday about the gathering.

I think there should be a photoshoot for all Final Fantasies instead of just 7. I'm dressing from FFX-2 (No one likes the game. I'm weird, I like it. x.x), and would like to be involved in the photoshoot... But I dun have any FF7 stuff (yet)! XD *digs through fabric box*

that's the map of the con center.

FF and KH shoot on saturday AFTER the c.com shoot at the SAME PLACE. (that way there's no confusion)

there is an all FF photoshoot, but the FF7 one is being organised by a different group. that's why they're at different times. ^-^

DLizzy: Your link to the map of the convention center doesn't work.. :lost: Also, let me know what time you'd like to have the BIG Final Fantasy gathering. Like how long after the c.com do you wish to have it? (30 mins to an hour?) And would Kingdom Hearts be seperate from the FF gathering?

that the smaller pic of it, but you can click on the pic to make it bigger. lol

well, the plan was to go ahead and form once the c.com one was done. that way we'll all be in the same area. KH is included in with the FF shoot since it's a smaller con. : )

I put the Final Fantasy & Kingdom Hearts gathering at 1:30pm on Saturday, just to allow a little time after the c.com gathering so that we can take pictures of those who hang around afterwards and then we'll gather the FF cosplayers together.

Ok! I took the liberty of deciding (without complaint;) that the Naruto photoshoot will be in the same location as the Shonen Jump shoot, but an hour earlier.

So, that makes it 2:30pm on Saturday at the Promenade B & Terrace

Anyone interested in a Yuna photoshoot? There are usually enough to have one. I don't know about this year.

I guess if there are any takers:

Saturday around 2:00, outside convention center

Eurobeat King

11-02-2004, 10:51 PM

Taryn: It's better if you show up at the Final Fantasy gathering at 1:30pm on Saturday, and then either before or after that gathering, you can try to get all the Yuna's from FFX and FFX-2 together for a Yuna-group shot. :) Usually after the big gathering, I (or other cosplayers) call out for FF groups by game (VII, VIII, IX, X, X2, etc.) and we take pics of each group. So when FFX and FFX-2 come up, you should be able to get pics of multiple Yuna's. ;)

I propose a Leiji Matsumoto character photoshoot Saturday at 3PM at the Holiday Inn lobby. I will be Captain Harlock once again and Ultry-chan will be there. ^.^v
